ChemInform Abstract: Gold(III)‐Catalyzed Enynamine—Cyclopentadiene Cycloisomerization with ChiralityTransfer: An Experimental and Theoretical Study Indicating Involvement of Dual Au(III) Push—Pull Assisted cis—trans Isomerism.

Abstract

AbstractA synthetic approach for asymmetric ring‐fused cyclopentadienes with a chiral carbon at the ring junction is established from chiral enynamines by achiral Au(III) catalysis.
